Potted History of my condition.
Diagnosed 10 months ago with type 2 and levels around 9 mmol/L told to control it by diet... Did the DESMOND course... told to eat less and healthier...Eh! Never been fat or overweight ever! Always eaten a health diet all my adult life, been fit and very active from being a kid, but yet I'm diagnosed with Diabetes...WHY??? I asked. Oh it must be genetic was the reply... Hu right!
Upshot is, despite doing all the right required things, the disease rages on at a faster pace, to the point where 3 weeks ago I'm measuring mmol/L of 20-23 regularly. Dr hands me over to the DNs and they start me on Gilclazide to get it down quickly....Er no 3 weeks on and I'm still creating enough sugar to power the National Grid, with a lowest low of 8.4, but mainly between 11.5-18 mmol/L
